It's all in the details
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
I picked up this book to learn the techniques of Chuck-n-Duck fishing. It explains the rigging, structure, casting, etc... It's a great help to get started, but it doesn't make up for time on the water. It covers Great Lakes steelhead and salmon fishing and not the NW. There's a big difference between the two mindsets and techniques. I would definately buy it again. Tight lines.
FLY FISHING FOR SALMON & STEELHEAD OF THE GREAT LAKES
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
Superb book. While this book does not have the nice glossy pictures that Steelhead Dreams does, its content is much better in my opinion. I especially liked the fact that Filkins presents all fly fishing methods applicable to Great Lakes salmonoid fishing without prejudice. He covers a wide swath of Great Lakes streams and I learned a great deal about some of the variations that exist in the fishery. A must read for the Great Lakes salmon & steelhead fisherman.

Hooked on Steelhead
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I bought this book to improve my luck on the St. Joe River. I loved it , cover to cover. Flies for the fish, not for display or to store in another flybox. This is a guide to practical, easily tied fish getters and how to present them. I felt included as I read about the rivers I have fished here in the midwest. The author gives a clear, common sense explanation covering tackle from rods to tippets. I enjoyed his stories which put me back on streams I had fished long ago. I'm hooked!
